They are over paying him !
Will not happen.
even if Rather was found with two dead boys in his closet.
Yeah, if they don't dump Rather, we'll stop watching. Oops, too late.
I figure the reason Rather ran this garbage is because the only audience he has left are the halfwit rubes who wouldn't know the truth if it bit them where the sun don't shine.
Will not happen.
even if Rather was found with two dead boys in his closet.
One can dream, can't they. CBS may actually realize that they have no other choice at some point though.
Watching Fox News Coverage of the tape of Rather "explaining" how the memos are legitimate just looks so much like tapes we used to see of Saddam Hussein released to his nation....
Watch them and see what you think.
Will do. CBS better start covering their line in the sand. They lose, we win.
Why would we want to help CBS? Let them help themselves or die. IOW, they made their bed. Let them sleep in it.
They NEVER will! It's not in their character.
I wrote my letter to CBS News NY last night. It was a good one. I was wired for sound when I wrote it. I have vented. CBS will no doubt delete this and many others as well. They do not care about public opinions or ratings. Only their obsession with socialism. But Please, hammer the fools with emails.
love to see it happen. since we are dreaming- send OReilly over there and let John Gibson or Tony Snow take over Oreilly show.
Dont watch CBS News so I won't have to see Oreilly.
Its a dream.
Who do you ask, though? That is the question. They aren't going to fire themselves. The stockholders are going to have to get mad. Viacom owns CBS. But Viacom is run by leftwing nutcases as well. What really needs to happen is that the stockholders of Viacom need to get mad, and knock some heads together.

AN EDITORIAL FROM TOMORROW'S INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY:
Could it be that CBS and Rather wanted to take Bush down a peg — especially given the questions about John Kerry's Vietnam service raised by the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth?
And could it be that CBS and Rather let their well-documented political leanings overrule their journalistic sense? Have they become just another hack voice in the political game?
Sadly, the answer seems to be yes. CBS' bias made it vulnerable to a hoax that fit nicely with the network's left-leaning culture. . . .
It now appears CBS made a grievous mistake or knowingly relayed false information. If so, what credibility does it have left? Even an on-air correction won't undo the damage.
CBS would go a lot further in restoring its credibility if it at least checked into the source and authenticity of the memos.
If it's shown that Democrats or the Kerry campaign are the source — as suggested by comments to the American Spectator by an unnamed Kerry staffer — CBS better say so.
If the documents prove to be forgeries, resignations from Rather and CBS News President Andrew Heyward would be in order — along with a sweeping sweeping review of ethical practices at a once-proud news organization.
I find it funny that prior to this CBS deception broke out, his original story accused of Bush not releasing documents. "What is Bush hiding?" Now that the tables are turned, Rather refuses to release his source and the original documents.
